Wladimir Kaminer shows where the spoon hangs in Russian cuisine. It doesn't always have to be caviar – especially not for Russians. The true symbol of luxury and fine living in Russia is the pineapple. This example illustrates that the culinary heritage of the former Soviet Union is largely uncharted territory here. Thanks to Wladimir Kaminer, this is now changing. He guides us through the pots and plates of the old Soviet republics, introducing the layperson to countries and people, and of course, to the most exciting cuisine in the world! He is supported by his wife Olga, who contributes the best recipes from her collection. Unforgettable encounters with Soviet cuisine and unique recipes – a true delight!.
